Reviews

The Playlist -
Afternoon Delight succeeds mainly because although the premise is broad, writer/director Jill Soloway is determined to keep it real.
|
|
Time Out -
Soloway mines her ensemble of funny ladies more for laughs than emotional insight, but Hahn breaks through it all; she’s the one who provides the glossy rumination with actual heart.

|
The New York Times -
Whether or not you wince, this meticulously acted movie, which won Ms. Soloway a directing award at the Sundance Film Festival, paints an accurate picture of how a segment of youngish, educated, affluent, white Americans converse. It is anything but inspiring.
|
|
The A.V. Club -
Alas, the film, which had at worst seemed unfocused (not a cardinal sin for a comedy), takes a bizarrely reactionary turn in the homestretch, undermining all of the goodwill Hahn had accumulated up to that point and turning her character into detestable yuppie scum.
|
|
Variety -
Although there are moments when it feels the plot might move in unexpected directions, in the end, the expected cliches reign.
